Observe And Report (2009) 7/10

Starring : Seth Rogen, Ray Liotta, Michael Pena, Anna Faris
Director : Jody Hill
Running Time : 83 mins

Mall security guard Ronnie Barnhardt (Rogen) takes his job very seriously, so when a flasher starts terrifying the customers at his mall he takes it very personally, especially when he targets Brandi (Faris), the make-up counter girl that he is secretly in love with. Following an encounter with Lieutenant Harrison (Liotta), the cop in charge of the flasher case, Ronnie decides that maybe it's time he became a proper cop.

I didn't expect much from this as I'd heard some really bad reviews about this movie, but it wasn't really that bad. Granted, it came along a little close to Paul Blart : Mall Cop, and shared a lot of similarities with it, but it did have a fair few enjoyable moments, and Rogen's delivery was perfect for the character he plays.
